Wettbewerbsrecht Blog

Official Blog of the European Competition and Regulatory Law Review (CoRe)

Der CoRe Blog bietet ein Austauschformat für aktuelle Analysen der Entwicklungen im EU-Wettbewerbsrecht. Er ist der Blog-Begleiter der vierteljährlich erscheinenden, mit einem doppelten Peer-Review-Verfahren versehenen European Competition and Regulatory Law Review (CoRe). Der CoRe-Blog füllt die Lücken, die eine viermal jährlich erscheinende Zeitschrift nicht schließen kann: unmittelbare Aktualisierungen und Analysen der neuesten Entwicklungen im EU-Wettbewerbs- und Regulierungsrecht und die Möglichkeit, diese Entwicklungen über unseren Kommentarbereich direkt mit anderen Experten zu diskutieren.

Wir möchten hören, was Sie über die aktuellen Themen im EU-Wettbewerbs- und Regulierungsrecht denken. Reichen Sie Ihren eigenen Beitrag (500-2000 Wörter) als externer Autor ein. Der Autor des beliebtesten Blogbeitrags im letzten Quartal wird in der CoRe-Zeitschrift veröffentlicht und erhält ein kostenloses Exemplar einer Ausgabe seiner Wahl.
